You know what else? I would love to own a little bakery like Maggie Gyllenhaal’s character has in Stranger Than Fiction. I love that film. I watched it a couple of nights ago and snacked on some cold left over home made pizza from dinner earlier. A lovely lovely night.

When that movie just came out, I was crazy about Hanes tank tops and wore them religiously and my favorite scene was when Ana Pascal serves Harold Crick a cookie with milk wearing a wife beater tank, skinny jeans, boots, and a cropped sequence jacket. Hot damn.

Figs were at the farmers market this week! I have been waiting and waiting for them and was worried I might miss them since I hear they have a very short season. They were perfectly ripe but it took me a coupla days to figure out what to finally do with them. You guys know me and scones, so naturally I settled on trying to make some with figs and feta. I am sure its been done by someone somewhere, but in my case, I’d like to think I made it up, thank you.

The recipe is so simple, I just might convert to using this as my base for other scones… Here ya go if you want to give it a try (I modified this original recipe):

I would love to find a poncho for winter this year. While keeping an eye out for that the last time I was out thrifting it up, I came away with this oversized sweater. For now it can function like a cloak, to hold me out from making any irrational purchases right? It was the perfect thing to throw on while I sat out and read this afternoon. I recently finished Atonement and now picked up the latest from Ian McEwan, Saturday.

I was told by a certain 5 year old that since the book is called Saturday, I am only allowed to read it on Saturday, but with her off at school and the other one napping I CAN DO WHAT EVER I WANT.
